Gratitude overshadows great loss, says author of book about losing wife to cancer
Fox News
New York City-based author of a new book, "Waving Goodbye," reveals that being grateful for the life he had with his now-deceased wife is what helps most as he copes with grief and loss.
In short chapters containing personal stories and observations, the book captures the devastation he felt (and is still feeling) after he lost his beloved wife, Lisa Krenzel, to cancer in Jan. 2018. "What helps me the most is being grateful for what I was given. That gratitude overshadows the loss — most days." "I am much closer to God and that has helped a lot." "So sorry, friend. Be strong and live." "It's OK to get a little help." Maureen Mackey is managing editor of lifestyle for Fox News Digital.
With her passing, the couple's daughter also lost her mother.
